[.NET] Raising Event?

Question

e.g.
Dim list As New PersonsBindingList(Of Person)
Dim p As New Person("Peter")
list.Add(p)

Within the Person class, I want to raise a custom event in the PersonsBindingList. How can this be accomplished? Must I also pass the list object to the constructor of the Person class so that I can obtain a reference to the list within the Person class and then use RaiseEvent list.MyCustomEvent()? Is there a better way?

Thank you.

Answer 1

You should create an EventArgs class that has a PersonsBindingList property, and pass that to your PersonEvent. Then your event handler signature should look like:

Sub MyHandler(sender As Object, e As PersonEventArgs)

sender should be the Person instance
and you can reference your list by referencing e.PersonsBindingList
